12mm brass adapter for TRX-4 HD wheels

This brass wheel hex hub adapter is produced as a replacement insert to suit the TRAXXAS TRX-4 HD wheel interface and provide a solid metal seating surface. It features a 12mm hex engagement and an 8mm thick body to deliver consistent contact between axle hardware and wheel.

Use the adapter to strengthen wheel mounting where original plastic hubs may degrade; be aware that it affects wheel offset and clearance, so test-fit before completing installation. Confirm no interference with your chassis or body panels.

Installation involves removing the wheel and existing hub hardware, seating the brass adapter in the wheel hex, and reattaching the wheel with the original fasteners. Verify axial play and wheel alignment, then perform a controlled test run to ensure smooth operation.

Regular maintenance includes clearing debris from the hex recess, checking the brass mating faces for wear, and confirming the adapter remains seated after running. Replace if wear results in noticeable wheel play or misalignment.

Will this fit models other than TRX-4 HD?

The adapter is designed for TRX-4 HD with a 12mm hex interface. Check your model's wheel hex measurement before fitting to ensure compatibility.

Does the 8mm thickness require chassis adjustments?

Adding the adapter will change the hub plane by 8mm which can affect track width and may require minor shimming or alignment checks to maintain proper handling.

How often should I inspect the adapter?

Inspect the seating area and hex recess after regular running sessions and immediately after heavy trail use. Replace the adapter if you detect deformation or excessive play.
